Reviews of Metro Glebe (Fruit Store)

Anfojesus Ann

Very well organized and so handy for a quick groceries. But the meats, too pricey.

Camille Gélinas-Fafard

(Translated) It helps out as a neighborhood grocery store, but it lacks a bit of veggie choices, cuts of meat and fish, etc. (Original) Ça dépanne comme épicerie de quartier, mais ça manque un peu de choix végé, de coupes de viande et de poisson, etc.

Disappointed

Monica Trejo

Overpriced market but overall good.

Robert Dekker

Nice downtown grocery, not a bad selection of goods for a smallish store

Silvia Yanez

Best Metro ever

David Chartrand

Great variety and helpful staff!

Peter Ebenhoech

Great staff, not a big Merro store so there are many items you won't find. Prices are higher then regular bigger stores

Laragh N

Some organic vegetables and meat...and other healthy shelf products as well as more normal groceries

Iman Bahreini

Great shopping experience, friendly staff, fresh produce.

Kala Gray

This little grocery store is always well stocked, clean and has just about everything you need. The produce is also really nice and very fresh! Sometimes the lines can be a bit long with only 1-2 cashiers, but otherwise we love our weekly trips here :)

LORIS MEGUENO

So expensive

Devin Baines

Wonderful family owned Metro franchise in the heart of the Glebe. Lots of character and good service.

Vincent Chevalier

Pretty good selection of fruits, vegetables, meat, dairy, and groceries. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Love the 10% discount for students!

Andi Cooper

Good variety of foods. Good service. Great sausage rolls. But, like all Metros, a little more expensive

Phil Montgomery

Great little metro! Helpful staff.

Nolan Dickson

Overall a little pricey in comparison to other grocery stores, but the availability in the downtown is very handy, much better selection that a Shoppers or the like.

Christine Johnson Delaney

Great friendly service, thank you Maddy. Competitive prices great savings this week for us!

Liam

Decent selection and prime location

Justin Campbell

Found what every store in Barrhaven was lacking.

Doug Humphries

One stop shopping we love this place local produce

David Brasset

Great friendly staff. A fellow by the name of Mitch was very polite and helpful ????

Kirk Hovell

My favourite grocery store around. It's small but it has everything and you can count on it all being in stock (except during the depths of covid, understandably). The employees do a great job at stocking the shelves. The fruit and vegetable selection is fantastic, as is the cheese selection. Plus, a 10% student discount every day (on purchases over $20) is great! I just wish they sold bigger tubs of feta cheese, but that's just me... They've also got a bin near the exit for plastic bag recycling (since plastic bags can't go in your household recycling bin in Ottawa). There's a handy list on the bin saying what can go in it (picture included). This helps me divert a lot from the landfill!

Friendly staff

Great community store.

Anna Burzynska

I went into the store recently to pick up some cupcakes for my boyfriend's family. The bakery employee that day, Hamish, was extremely polite and helpful. Made the experience great and makes me want to come back to the store again!

Robin Bolton

Fantabulous! Super fresh offerings. Wonderful selection of certified organic meat products :) Knowledgeable staff. Great vibe and ambiance while shopping. You know when your there why this is such a Glebe and Old Ottawa South institution!

Philippe Le Roux

(Translated) Very expensive products, disappointing quality of fruits and vegetables. For example, a garlic head paid a fortune all parched inside and good to throw ... (Original) Produits très chers, qualité des fruits et légumes décevante. Par exemple, tête d'ail payée une fortune toute desséchée à l'intérieur et bonne à jeter...

Good for your immediate grocery needs. Staff is ok.

Neena Sidhu

Update: Gluten free item much improved! Well done.

John Forsythe

Above average fruit and produce, decent selection of goods, 10% student discount... What's not to like?

jose Rodriguez

There is nothing better then metro fruits they are beyond amazing I highly recomend it best store best price best costomer service oh yea bud!!!!!!

Leo Lee

Nothing to get excited about. Nothing special; just another grocery store. No ta da moment. Can use a lot more space. Store is really dated.

Apple Green

Excellent fresh food and bread.

Raegen Magee

Bought a few items and had Nick as a cashier. A pleasant and polite young man. Keep up the good work!

Sameer Gupta

The sausage was at least 3 days past the “best before” date when I went over the weekend, being sold with a $1 markdown to $5.99

David Lelacheur

Nice little grocery store in the Glebe. Not the best selection, but high quality.

Taylor Bennett

Small store in the heart of the Glebe. Not usually as busy as the Loblaws in the Glebe but parking can sometimes be an issue. Better selection of items compared to similar stores this size.

Simon Rechico Moisan

Great centrally located grocery store. Big parking strucutre in behind it with lots of other cool stores nearby. The selection of food is pretty good but i find it a little tight in some areas. Staff have always been kind and helpful

Stephanie Vizi

Love this place!

Derek Ng

Well kept and organized and student discounts every day!

Tyler Owens

Good selection at regular prices. A bit small, no parking; good for customers who live within walking distance. Rarely crowded and rarely sold out of any items. Staff always friendly and efficient.

Victoria Occhipinti

Very small, but decent selection for its size. Baked in store goods, helpful staff.

Mr. T.

Very clean store, everything in order, seamless operation. Some staff were nice to me on different occasion.

keven ducharme

Nice people

Derek Whalen

Great, friendly and helpful staff!

Marieux Mattis

The fruits looked anaemic but the staff were nice.

Jacques Critchley

Officious security at door "copxplaining" social distance and capacity...yeah, got it.

John Bedggood

Produce is considerably worse quality than a market or a Farm Boy and it's more expensive but, it's still pretty good. Non-perishables and others packaged food are often marked up far-beyond the recommended retail price. Staff are nice and the store is clean.

R G

Small and didn't have the regular metro flyer items. Staff are friendly and the location works if you live in the area so is convenient if you live nearby.

Laurie meers

Convenient in the glebe

Nicolas Audet

(Translated) Handy because I live nearby, but the selection leaves a little to be desired ... (Original) Pratique parce que j'habite tout près, mais la sélection laisse un peu à désirer...

Kevin Rogers

Great grocery store where I go for everything I need and want. Staff are friendly and helpful. The selection is good. Check the Best Before dates on bread. Numerous times, I’ve had mouldy bread after just a few days. When I checked the date, I saw that I purchased the loaf AFTER the best before date on its sticker. I bought this bread on Feb 3.

One time I bought a pear here and it was so bad it made me want to cry.

Dorna molayee

I love this place, this reminds me of home, we had a similar store back in Iran near my house and I always visited for my everyday groceries. I just wish they had a little bit more variety in their personal hygiene section although shoppers drug mart is close. But I love this place overall, super helpful employees!

Mike Batchelder

Found what I was after but no lottery here.

Michael pagé

Very bad service

Jono Hamer-Wilson

Best little grocery store in Ottawa! Looking forward to enjoying my fresh fruit & veggies, of which they have a surprisingly wide & reasonably priced range...

Karen Smith

Always out of or very limited of a certain product that is had to find and staff is not very knowledgeable which makes for a frustrating shopping experience. Also sad to see poor quality produce recently.... in addition, there are many products that are overpriced that can be found elsewhere for half the price ...

C T

The meat department is kind of lacking and doesn't usually have the sales in stock that larger metro's would have. But overall they have most of what you would be looking for in general.

Sue Dinelle

We often find items here that we have not been able to get in other grocery stores, like Habitant Chow Chow or Canton broth for fondues.

Hanna Osterwoldt-Pelletier

Excellent supermarket, good range of products, and great and helpful customer service!

carrie k

Clean, friendly and helpful staff. Surprisingly wide variety of stock for a small store. I shop here all the time.

Raleigh Smith

The store is small, so selection is limited and prices are a bit high. Staff is friendly.

A Sto

This is a fantastic grocery store in a small footprint. You'll find great deals here at regular grocery store prices in the heart of the Glebe. A wide variety and selection of products which is surprising and all products are nicely displayed and easy to find. Kudos to the managers.

Liza Morris

Well stocked for a small grocery store.
